Should parents should continue to finance their children when reaching age of 18

Yes if the child/ren is still studying of course the parents should assist them financially, if they are able to afford it that is. In Australia many people start University at aged 17 or 18, so they are still in many ways financially dependent on their parents. By all means the parents should encourage the child to get a part time job, but it shouldn't interfere with their studies. Our son was 18 when he started his degree course, was also working and his education was paid for thanks to a scholarship. However when he was in his mid-20's he considered going back to University and we offered to help him financially so he could concentrate on his studies. In the end he decided against further studies, but should he take up that option then yes we would contribute. That is what parents do, although some cannot afford to pay for everything, many do help their children.

As long as the children are stll studying parents shoud support them in any way, because this is the responsibility of parents. When the children are really grown up or have a stable job, the sons or daughter shoud help the parents in return. and it depens upon them.In some countries there were strong family ties even their children were already has their own family they still support them not ony financially but whenever they have problems in the family.

When my children finished school and started working i still supported them as they only earned a small wage. I told them they did not have to pay board as long as they looked after their money and saved.I also told them that if they didn't save i wanted board as i could do lots with the money. They were both very good with their money ,my son bought his first home in his early 20's and my daughter had saved for a car (second hand) but it was only 3 years old and she paid cash for it.also she saved enough for a holiday overseas.. I will always be there to support my children any way they may need it even financially .I believe that once you have children, you always have responsibilities toward them

Parents obligation to fianance their children should only be stop when the children finish study, and have jobs to all not graduate.

well in our country parents keep on financing unless the kids are cpable of doing somtheing of their own so its pretty obvious they willl help their kids till the time they are old enough to take care of their family

Yes, i guess parents should support their children till it graduates from college.

If out of school parents should step aside

if the children haven't started earning yet then yes parents should finance them. It's obvious as once the child starts earning he will spend on his own and maybe live somewhere else to do the job, depends on the location, if he does his job in your own city then maybe he would want some money or may depend on food in your house and would change his mind and put his earnings to the savings account

My son is 19, and presently attending university. You bet your life I am going to help financially support him and his goals and educational achievements. Sure, he has responsibilities that he has to learn to take care of financially, and he does. But, we make sure tuition is taken care of, and that he has emergency funds. If he wants little extras he has to work for that. Now, if he didn't choose to pursue higher education, we would have helped him get on his feet, but he would have to have established work and a means of supporting his future--there has to be some kind of responsible goal they are pursuing. You don't want to create a dependent moocher with your children.

PARENTS SHOULD SUPPORT THEIR CHILRENS IN ANY MATTER AS THEY ARE HAVING SOME RESPONSIBILTY WHICH THEY HAVE TO COMPLETE AND THAT RESPONSIBILTY COME TO EVERYONE WHO BECOMES FATHER AND THAT CHAIN OR A CYCLE CONTINOUS.THEY SHOULD NOT BE KEPT COMPLETE DEPENDENT IF THEY HAD GOT NICE JOB TO THEM.
